Bethel Elementary After School

Finally put up some pictures to our bulletin board! Here are some fun times we had at Bethel ELC this year. From science experiments, to playing cards, to dressing up, these kids know how to have fun! 😋

@MrsKDunnagan @bethel_school Yay! So glad you all used this teal color as well! It's my favorite 😍

These brave souls hiked the ladder and painted my very high ceiling classroom. It looks amazing!! Thanks Karen, Jamie, Alex, Hope, and Sydney for your dedication to @bethel_school .

We have FUN at Bethel After School 😎if you know anyone who needs information or is interested in our program for next year, send an email to elc_be@wataugaschools.org

Bethel After School is sporting a new color! We are getting the room and school ready for you all to return- miss you all! 😍💙

A new study finds that greeting students at the door increases engagement by 20%, reduces disruptions by 9% -- effectively adding 1 hour of learning per day. My latest article on @edutopia edutopia.org/article/welcom…

I didn’t write the schedule on the board today so Jovie and Logan decided to help out.

Raising funds and painting the town RED! @WataugaSchools #AidensArmy #WeAreWatauga

Puff paint flowers to continue the celebration of Spring and nice weather! 🌼🌸

Today we discussed the ocean and ocean life 🐙🦀🐬🐋

We made some tasty phases of the moon today. 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔

The Performing Theater: The American C Giraffe Places I’m not entirely sure the premise of this performance but it was a very entertaining show today!

They were very captivated by the stories at the Diversity Festival on Tuesday.

My original question of the day: What was your favorite part of Spring Break? Jovie answered then realized the question needed to be more broad and rewrote it. New question: What are some things you did over Spring Break?

Good thing our future paleontologist was at after school today! Next week we’ll have to vote on a name.

Attempting to dig out the rest of the fossils! We learned that spraying water helps to soften the clay.

Here's hoping a safe and restful spring break will get us over the hill of this long winter. Don't forget, school will be back in session Thursday, April 5. #WeAreWatauga

The girls were acting as paleontologists, excavating a triceratops. Today we managed to dig out 7 pieces out of 15! 🦖🦕

I moved the reading center over to allow for better access and immediately after snack was asked to read. Landon kept going to the shelf and we stopped after the 6th book!

During snack I had four kids continuously ask to go see what’s at the book fair early. They sure do love to read!

I believe that our new board sums up most everyone’s thoughts... Happy first day of spring!
